I would have said the same thing last week. Been building PCs for 21 years. First time. This one has been running for over a year too. In my defense I always use Noctua heatsinks the last several years (except this time) which don’t have a plastic peel.

Oops

Also curious what you’ve moved to. I’ve been meaning to try Plex on windows but even if that works there’s still the remote problem. The shield is definitely getting long in the tooth though and the ads all over the Home Screen sure don’t help.

Looking for a 14900K

Interest in CPU if you decide to part

price drop

Selling my wife's barely used base model MacBook Air 13.6-inch, M2, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD in Starlight. No defects, includes original box and charger as well as a ($200 MSRP) Apple leather sleeve. $720 shipped Zelle only

Lol dude was just trying to help you out. That’s a great deal. Tons of people have purchased refurbished hard drives with no issues and the price is cheaper than you’d pay for most used drives with no warranty.

Anyone seen results for undervolting or underclocking this? I'm curious if you could achieve 14900K performance with less power draw

Looking for a Mac Mini. Probably M1 or M2 but would also entertain a 2018 Intel if the price is right.

Looking for a LGA 1700 CPU. Alderlake or Raptor Lake. I’ll entertain anything from a 12400 to 14900K.

Guess I missed those sales but good to know. Best of luck to you!

Honestly if you can get a new sn850x 2TB for that price you should take it. Prices have spiked since Black Friday. I haven’t seen anything close to that.

Well it depends on the rest of the system as well and if you’re gonna be running both CPU and GPU full tilt simultaneously or a typical gaming workload. Lots of SFF builds with the SF750 PSU and 4090s with AMD CPUs running without issue. 13900K and up would be pushing it for sure.

Unfortunately those don’t support ECC RAM for some completely arbitrary and dumb reason so won’t work for me
